Whatever happened to the 'Dance Breakdown' in pop videos?
Purely out of curiosity I watched the video of Hear'Say's final single 'Lovin is easy' on Youtube, and about half way through, the 'dance breakdown' appears, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hhoVtV5nTo
And it reminded me of all the artists that were doing it around this time. I.e. JLo - Love dont cost a thing Janet Jackson - All for you There's much much more I just can't think right now, can anyone else think of some? Or even remember this bizarre phenomenon? |

I think it's because now there has to be a rap in any "Dead" bits of songs because it increases record sales amongst 8-14 year olds.

It got kind of tired- I mean, people had been doing it since Paula Abdul was popular! When everyone's doing it, it's not original anymore.

Good news! The video for Alesha Dixon's new song, Knockdown, has exactly something like this. It's rather marvellous.

Does anybody else think that Hear'Says 'Lovin' is easy' is a fab pop song?
Just me then?

Just me then? ![]() I like that song too, I actually thought Hear'Say were quite a good group Quite a few RnB videos still have the dance breakdowns, Ciara's videos tend to have them, she's a really good dancer. |
